WoW Death Knight Guide

Posted November 17th, 2009 by Messiah

Our complete Death Knight guide.

Our World of Warcraft Death Knight guide has just relaunched with some big updates. So far we have updated the main page, the basics page, and the combat page, with much more to come! If you are a Death Knight or just looking to start a new character and are thinking about playing a Death Knight this guide is for you. So go ahead and click on the link and check out our new Death Knight Guide!

Death Knights are World of Warcraft's first Hero class. They were brought into the game with the release of the second expansion, The Wrath of the Lich King. They are an extremely powerful hybrid class that specializes in tanking and damage dealing through the use of both magic and melee with a strong emphasis on melee.

You can find all the details in our Death Knight Guide.

Nice solid guide, thanks for putting it together.

Here are a few thoughts as I read through it:

Would be nice to see some Tanking and 2H talent builds, I didn't look at the Blood build but both Frost & Unholy you had DW builds.

For racials, the biggest appeal for a Night Elf is Quickness, and for the min/maxer's out there this is the reason why NE's are the best Alliance tanking race over Dwarves.

Human racials

Hi, good guide, I just have to respectfully object to this:

Humans have the weakest set of racials, except when it comes to grinding for reputation.

That may have been true at one time, but nowadays, humans come with Sword Specialization (+3 expertise) and Every Man for Himself (free PVP trinket without using the trinket slot? yes please!). Add to that the aforementioned Diplomacy (+10% rep gains) and you have a solid basis to push all the way to 80.

Xerin, I'll compile some DK builds for addition to the guide if you want. I know they're making changes at the moment for 3.1 so I might wait until those start to settle out a bit, but that would probably be helpful to people.
